Cell-Based Therapies in Stroke
Stroke remains one of the main causes of death and disability worldwide. While effective therapy for stroke recovery remains an unmet need. Much hope and promises are placed on cell-based therapies. The aim of this book is to provide focused yet comprehensive reviews on the current state of cell-based approaches in the treatment of stroke. The topics covered include experimental data on functional outcome after intravascular and intracerebral delivery of cells in stroke animals, followed by translational chapters which will rely heavily on the use of different imaging modalities in the tracking of cells. The last and most challenging part will describe the early phase of clinical studies, providing guidelines for future research and clinical applications. Clearly and concisely written, this text will be a useful resource for neurologists, radiologists, and neuroscientists interested in cell transplantation as a therapeutic strategy for stroke patients.
Advances in the Preclinical Study of Ischemic Stroke
This book reports innovations in the preclinical study of stroke, including - novel tools and findings in animal models of stroke, - novel biochemical mechanisms through which ischemic damage may be both generated and limited, - novel pathways to neuroprotection. Although hypothermia has been so far the sole "neuroprotection" treatment that has survived the translation from preclinical to clinical studies, progress in both preclinical studies and in the design of clinical trials will hopefully provide more and better treatments for ischemic stroke. This book aims at providing the preclinical scientist with innovative knowledge and tools to investigate novel mechanisms of, and treatments for, ischemic brain damage.
All-Optical Methods to Study Neuronal Function
This open access volume provides an overview of the latest methods used to study neuronal function with all-optical experimental approaches, where light is used for both stimulation and monitoring of neuronal activity. The chapters in this book cover topics over a broad range, from fundamental background information in both physiology and optics in the context of all-optical neurophysiology experiments, to the design principles and hardware implementation of optical methods used for photoactivation and imaging. In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory. Comprehensive and cutting-edge, All-Optical Methods to Study Neuronal Function is a valuable resource for researchers in various disciplines such as physics, engineering, and neuroscience. This book will serve as a guide to establish useful references for groups starting out in this field, and provide insight on the optical systems, actuators, and sensors. This is an open access book.
Who is who der Sozialen Arbeit
Für die Soziale Arbeit im deutschsprachigen Raum gab es bislang kein Nachschlagewerk über Personen und Persönlichkeiten, die in Theorie und Praxis maßgeblich zu ihrem Aufbau und heutigen Erscheinungsbild beigetragen haben. Diese Lücke schließt das vorliegende Handbuch. Es enthält Stichworte zu über 600 Personen, die schwerpunktmäßig im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert im Bereich der (heute so genannten) Sozialen Arbeit und in wichtigen Nachbardisziplinen gewirkt haben: Als Impuls- und Ideengeber, Begründer von Einrichtungen und Organisationen, Theoretiker und Verantwortliche in leitenden Positionen. Jedes Stichwort gliedert sich in eine Beschreibung der persönlichen und beruflichen Biographie, eine Darstellung der Bedeutung dieser Person für die Soziale Arbeit und in eine Bibliographie einschlägiger Werke und Sekundärquellen. Ein Standardwerk, das die theoretisch-wissenschaftlich, organisatorisch oder arbeitsmethodisch orientierten Fachlexika ideal ergänzt.
